TO THE BOYS WHO WERE THERE. 



The publisher of this book has been creditably informed that 
during General Grant's administration, the Secretary of War 
detailed a corps of clerks to compile a list of battles, engage- 
ments, combats, and skirmishes of the Civil War. After the ex- 
penditure of thousands of dollars in its compilation, ten copies 
were printed for use in the various bureaus of the War Depart- 
ment. 

The Adjutant-General, taking one of these copies, said, "Mr. 
Secretary, here is the book. WHiat do you think of it?" After 
a careful examination he commended the neat appearance, the 
quality of paper, and excellent execution displayed. "Now, 
General, I am going to see if your book is complete.'' After a 
little searching, he said. "Your book is not complete." The Ad- 
jutant-General answered with surprise, "Wliy so?" The Secre- 
tary replied, "I do not find any mention of a little affair in which 
I was interested. Let me tell you. At the breaking out of the 
war I had the honor to command a small body of troops, and one 
night, while in camp near the State line, a colored man reported 
that the enemy had a recruiting station at or near Athens, Mis- 
souri. I marched my men nearly all night with the colored man 
as a guide, and toward morning we surprised, attacked, and 
cleaned out their camp, having a few of my men wounded. Your 
book does not mention it. '' 

To the question, "Did you report this to the Department?" 
the Secretary answered, "No. I was a lawyer at the time, and 
did not know that such small affairs had to be reported." "Well! 
your failure to do your duty as the commander of those troops 
is the only excuse that we have for not having it in our book. 
This is the first time I ever heard of it." 

1 he compiler of this book was fortunate enough to have one 
of I he few copies of the book referred to, and, with this for %

nucleus, has been for more than ten years adding to it from 
authentic as well as additional official sources. 

Many histories of the war have been published, and special at- 
tention is given to the story of the great battles, Shiloh, An- 
tietam, Fredericksburg, Stone's River, Chancellorsville, Gettys- 
burg, Chickamauga, Chattanooga, Charleston, Fort Fisher, and 
Mobile, and then call it a history of the war. 

The hundreds of so-called minor affairs, the hurried scout by 
day and night into the enemy's territorj-, the sharp skirmish 
where the regiment suffered severely, while perhaps the same 
regiment held its place in some of the great battles without loss, 
the dangerous raids on lines of communication, these are the 
things lacking in many publications. 

The Departments recognize only data received through official 
channels. In this book facts are given, whether official or not, 
and we submit it unhesitatingly as the most complete compila- 
tion in existence to the "Boys Who Were There." 



This book is dedicated to every man, woman, or child who 
suffered that the Union might be preserved, and that "a. govern- 
ment of the people, by the people, and for the people, might not 
perish from the earth."
